Chapter 556 Annoyed Chris

Professor McGonagall pursed her lips and walked away without looking back. Listening to the sound of high heels tapping away, Harry's expression was a little awkward. He felt that Professor McGonagall seemed very angry, which made him a little worried.

The portrait of Dumbledore opposite him seemed to see what Harry meant, and said with a smile:

"Don't worry about it, Harry, Minerva will recover in a while."

"Is... is it?"

Harry said a little uncertainly.

At this time, the portrait of the witch with silver curly hair next to the portrait of Dumbledore shook her head in dissatisfaction.

She had seen the emotional entanglement between Dumbledore and McGonagall from beginning to end. In her opinion, Dumbledore was a complete emotional liar and scumbag.

If possible, she really wanted to turn Dumbledore into a slug and then sprinkle salt on him!

But that was unrealistic after all, after all, she was just a magic portrait.

Dumbledore's portrait completely ignored the silver-haired witch. He stared at Harry for a long time before he said seriously:

"Harry, do you remember the invisibility cloak I gave you? There was a pattern engraved on it. Oh, you probably haven't seen it, after all, it's invisible. But it does have it."

"Of course I remember, it was the first Christmas gift I ever received!"

"It was actually your father's relic, and I just returned it to its original owner."

"Is that so?"

Harry's eyes gradually became blurred after hearing this. Before this, he had always regarded the cloak as an ordinary invisibility cloak, and he didn't expect it to have such an extraordinary meaning.

Fortunately, he has always taken good care of it, otherwise if it got dirty or damaged, he would regret it now!

The portrait of Dumbledore stared at Harry quietly until he recovered from his memories, then continued:

"What I want you to do is very simple, that is to protect the invisibility cloak. No matter who asks you for it or wants to take it away from you, you must do your best to protect it! Especially Mike, I guess he will find you soon."

Harry's heart tightened when he heard this, and he instinctively asked:

"But... why?"

"Why?" Dumbledore smiled and said, "Because the cloak in your hand is the Deathly Hallows. Regarding the Deathly Hallows, you can read "The Tales of Beedle the Bard". Although the description there is a bit exaggerated and inaccurate, it does make sense in some things.

When all the Deathly Hallows gather together, Death will come, but it is not to give you good luck, or to declare that you have defeated death.

On the contrary, it is to spread death.

At that time, very bad things will happen.

So you must protect the invisibility cloak in your hand, just like the third brother in "The Tales of Beedle the Bard" did."

"I understand, Headmaster Dumbledore."

Harry said with a firm look in his eyes.

He didn't fully understand what Dumbledore said just now, but this did not affect his obedience to Dumbledore's orders.

But before he went to execute Dumbledore's orders, Harry still had a question that was not answered.

He raised his head, looked directly into Dumbledore's eyes and asked:

"Headmaster Dumbledore, did Michael really kill you? Why did he do this?"

Dumbledore's portrait showed an expression of as expected, and replied with a smile:

"I was indeed killed by Michael. But unlike the murder described by the outside world, Michael didn't actually want to kill me. I asked him to kill me. In other words, this was actually a suicide."

"What?" Harry said in disbelief, "But why did you do this?"

"Because my life is really painful, and I have completed my mission." Dumbledore said, "You may not understand it now, but deep in the hearts of human beings, there is actually a self-destructive factor. When you live like me for so long, you will probably understand why I did this."

Harry looked at Dumbledore's portrait with a confused face.

He felt that Dumbledore's words were becoming more and more incomprehensible after his death.

But at the same time, he was also relieved.

Deep down, Harry was unwilling to believe that it was Mike who killed Dumbledore, and now Dumbledore has cleared Mike of the charges, which finally untied the knot that had troubled Harry for a long time.

Harry and Dumbledore's conversation continued. After going through so many things, Harry had countless words to tell Dumbledore.

In the past, Dumbledore would never be so patient, because the headmaster of Hogwarts is very busy.

But now it's different. Dumbledore is now just a magical portrait, and he has plenty of time to chat with Harry.

The conversation between the two did not end until the sun set, and at the same time, Chris was smashing things like crazy in the office of the Minister of Magic.

Those exquisite portraits, gorgeous chandeliers, quaint furniture...

everything was turned into pieces under Chris's violent venting!

The newly recruited beautiful assistant was hiding under the desk and trembling. She couldn't understand why Minister Flint suddenly went crazy, and she didn't understand how to calm him down again.

Fortunately, the noise outside stopped suddenly, and then Chris shouted in a slightly tired voice:

"Get out of here!"

The female assistant under the desk got up almost instantly and ran out of the office in high heels at the speed of a 100-meter race.

As the door was closed again, Chris also stepped back and sat back in his seat.

It has been almost a day since he came back from Dumbledore's funeral, and he has been venting his anger in his heart almost all day.

Of course, please don't get me wrong, the reason why he is so angry is not because Mike killed his respected Professor Dumbledore, and his relationship with Dumbledore is not that good.

What really makes him angry is Dumbledore's deception of him.

You have to know that Voldemort, that is, Tom, had actually given up the idea of ​​challenging death after he was officially resurrected as Chris, but the fact was not as he said, he reconciled with death.

It was because he found that death was originally invincible!

But after becoming the Minister of Magic and reading a lot of historical materials, he suddenly discovered that there was such a thing as the Deathly Hallows in this world. As long as the three Deathly Hallows were collected, death could be defeated.

And Dumbledore and Grindelwald were the companions who collected the three Deathly Hallows together. In other words, Dumbledore always knew how to defeat death, but he never told anyone.

Dumbledore, he just watched himself go astray and turned into a monster like watching a monkey show!

And most importantly, Chris did not find his wand, which was confirmed to be the Elder Wand of the Deathly Hallows, among Dumbledore's relics. Even Chris checked Dumbledore's grave, but still found nothing.

And Grindelwald, who was imprisoned in the tower, also disappeared!

What does this mean?

This means that even if Dumbledore is dead, he is still on guard against him!

"What an old bastard!"

Chris couldn't help cursing!

When he thought of this, he couldn't help but get angry.

Fortunately, the previous smashing had helped Chris vent most of his anger, so he soon calmed down again. If

you think about it carefully, there are not many places where Dumbledore can hide the Deathly Hallows with confidence. Among them, Hogwarts, an ancient castle with countless secrets, happens to be the most suitable place.

Then the next thing is very simple. Now that Dumbledore has passed away and the position of the principal is vacant, as long as he grabs the position of the principal of Hogwarts, he can look for the Deathly Hallows in it unscrupulously.

And it is also a very easy thing for him to get the position of the principal of Hogwarts.

Although the students of Hogwarts have just had a conflict with the Ministry of Magic and the resistance is strong, as long as Chris uses his power as the Minister of Magic to forcibly issue a decree, then Hogwarts, as a magic school, will have no room for resistance.

Thinking of this, Chris's brows relaxed a little.

At this moment, the door of the office was opened again.

The female assistant, with a fearful face, carefully avoided the furniture fragments on the floor and placed a pile of documents in her hand on Chris's desk.

"Minister... Minister, the Director of the Law Enforcement Department asked me to give these documents to you for review." The female assistant forced a smile and said with difficulty. "Also, as the news that McTownley killed Dumbledore spread, those minority groups have become active again recently. The Director of the Department of Magical Accidents and Disasters asked me to ask you whether it is necessary to use force to suppress them?"

"Why don't they come to me in person?"

Hearing this, the female assistant glanced at the messy office, and then lowered her head without saying a word.

Chris understood it completely. He laughed twice, as if mocking those cowardly officials who only dared to hide behind a female assistant and did not dare to face him.

Looking at the pile of documents that were half a meter high, Chris's breathing, which had originally calmed down, began to become rapid again.

This is another thing that has made him anxious recently.

That is, the work of the Minister of Magic is too busy and too tedious!

Chris originally thought that the work of the Minister of Magic was to stay in the office every day, drink coffee and bask in the sun.

The secretary does it when there is something to do, and the secretary does it when there is nothing to do.

But when he officially took office, he found that it was not the case.

The so-called Minister of Magic is completely a document review machine. The documents he has to review every day are enough to bury him completely!

At the same time, there are some very difficult things in these documents, some of which even Chris can't solve.

This made Chris feel very disappointed, and also made him realize that he may not have any leadership talent.

In the past, he always thought that the previous Voldemort must have had a brain problem to form some Death Eaters to try to rule the Ministry of Magic in Yingguo.

After all, with his talent, it would take more than this to become the Minister of Magic through the right way.

But now he understands.

Perhaps Voldemort realized that he did not have the so-called leadership talent, so he took a different approach and formed an organization with no internal rules and completely relying on violence and fear to rule and maintain.

Think carefully, although he has become the Minister of Magic, in control of the entire Ministry of Magic in Ying Country.

But in fact, isn't he trapped in this position by the so-called power?

The countless rules and endless work are like chains that imprison him firmly in this office.

He has a legendary power, but there is no place to display it! The reason

why he was able to hold on before was that after giving up the goal of defeating death, he only had the goal of changing the world. But

now, the hope of defeating death and immortality has reappeared in front of him, so compared with it, the so-called changing the world and ruling the entire Ministry of Magic in Ying Country don't seem so tempting!

He doesn't even hate Mike so much!

After figuring this out, Chris finally smiled.

He looked at the female assistant in front of him who had already trembled like a sieve, and said softly:

"Okay, don't be afraid, it's okay now."

"Yes... yes, Minister."

The expression on the female assistant's face did not relax at all.

Chris obviously didn't care. He stretched out his hand and pushed the documents on the desk to the ground. He laughed and said to the female assistant:

"Go tell the director of the Law Enforcement Department and the director of the Auror Office not to bother me with such small matters in the future. They can decide for themselves! But! If there is a problem in their work and it causes negative impact. Haha, then they don't have to live anymore!"

After that, Chris waved his hand, signaling the female assistant to get out.

As for whether his tough management style would cause backlash from the people below, resulting in no one willing to take the position, he was not worried at all.

Water flows to the low places, and people go to the high places.

Ambition is something engraved in the human gene sequence, and no one can resist the feeling of holding power.

After all, this world still respects personal strength.

As long as you are strong enough, you can exploit others unscrupulously!

This is the gift given by the gods to the strong!

Such a simple truth, I have not figured it out until now.

Chris smiled and shook his head, feeling deeply stupid.

But it is not too late to understand it now!

After getting rid of all the constraints of everything, he can finally devote himself to the collection of the Deathly Hallows.

"Hehe, then first of all, let's start with Hogwarts!"

Looking at the endless clouds and fields outside the window, the smile on Chris's face became brighter.
